Taita Libardo MatapĂ­ Yucuna

Traditionally known as YawikapĂ­, “Tiger Necklace,” he was born on July 20, 1978, in La Pedrera, Amazonas, Colombia. A member of the Tiger Clan, Taita Libardo has dedicated more than 25 years to sharing ancestral medicine and traditional teachings.

His training began at a very young age under the guidance of his father, the renowned Taita Luis Eduardo MatapĂ­ Yucuna, with whom he studied for 15 years, strengthening a legacy based on respect and connection with the traditions of his people.

Throughout his life, he has traveled through various territories of the Colombian Amazon, sharing and learning from great wisdom keepers of indigenous communities such as the Murui, CorebajĂş, Kichwa, Macuna, and Siona. For over 17 years, he also worked as a bilingual teacher and traditional authority, imparting not only academic knowledge but also spiritual values and healing practices.

The Taita shares the medicines of yagé (capi in his language), mambe, ambil, rapé, and kambo—essential elements for restoring harmony between body, mind, and spirit.

His holistic approach honors ancestral processes and promotes a safe and authentic space for those seeking healing. His mission is to keep his people’s cultural heritage alive and pass it on with love to future generations.

Diego Colot Duque

A man deeply connected to nature, Diego’s life revolves around honoring and protecting the natural world. His profound bond with the elements shapes his daily life, inspiring his work and guiding his personal rituals. A lover of water and the invigorating power of cold showers, he has developed tools to calm the mind, cultivate resilience, and foster a deeper connection with the body.

More than a decade ago, Diego encountered the medicine of Yagé, an experience that profoundly transformed his path. Since then, he has dedicated himself to serving and supporting others during ceremonies, humbly learning from elders and deepening his understanding of ancestral wisdom. His service is rooted in respect, presence, and a commitment to holding sacred space for healing and transformation.

As the visionary behind Fuente Alegre, Diego has poured his heart and dedication into creating a space that embodies harmony with nature and honors the ancestral teachings that have shaped his journey.

Lara Grofils

Lara has been dancing for over 25 years. In the last decade, with training in dance therapy, she has transformed into a holistic artist, combining body techniques and somatic tools to open new pathways of expression and liberate the inner self.

As a practitioner of Somatic Therapy, her approach integrates movement with psychology and neuroscience, fostering a deeper connection with oneself, improving relationships with others, and promoting a greater understanding of the world. Certified in the Trauma Conscious Yoga Methodâ„ , Lara guides individuals to recognize and release unconscious traumatic responses stored in their bodies, helping them let go of what no longer serves them.

testimonials

I took part in a Kambo and Ayahuasca ceremony at Fuente Alegre, and honestly, it’s hard to put into words how much it’s changed me. I came here feeling super stressed and unsure about my life, and I’m leaving with so much more clarity, optimism, and a lighter heart.

This experience helped me reconnect with who I really am and see the kind of life I truly want. It also made me realize the last blocks I need to overcome to build the life I dream of.

The place itself is magical—so peaceful, surrounded by nature, with incredible mountain views and total silence. Every detail feels intentional, from the beautiful wooden constructions handcrafted by Diego, to the warm and genuine care from Lara, who’s a movement therapist.

What really stood out during the ceremony was how safe and supported I felt—like being with family. That sense of trust allowed me to completely let go and dive into the transformation Ayahuasca offers. The music and the shaman’s authentic presence made all the difference, creating a space where I felt truly cared for and at ease.

It’s been a true before-and-after moment in my life. Fuente Alegre is such a special place, and I’d recommend it to anyone who’s looking for healing, clarity, or just a deeper connection with themselves.

Françoise N., Belgium

I recently had the privilege of experiencing a retreat at Fuente Alegre, and it was truly transformative. This family-run sanctuary, lovingly built by hand, offers something rare: a place where healing feels natural and effortless. Surrounded by the beauty of nature and immersed in the power of cleansing ceremonies, I found myself shedding layers of emotional weight, as though given the chance to begin anew.

The Ayahuasca ceremonies were unlike anything I had ever encountered. The experience was profound yet safe, thanks to the environment the family has so carefully created. It’s clear that they nurture not just the land but the relationships within it. Their warmth and genuine care foster a deep sense of trust, allowing guests to be vulnerable without fear.

I feel immensely grateful for the opportunity to have lived in such a unique space, where connection, healing, and renewal are at the heart of everything. Fuente Alegre is more than just a retreat—it’s a home for the soul.

Claudia I., Belgium

I’m Satu from Finland and had my second experience of Ayahuasca in Fuente alegre. It was so beautiful ceremony, amazing Taita with a lot of experience and knowledge. Felt so safe and relaxed all the time. Ceremony was small and really familiar. I’ll carry this experience in my heart rest of my life ❤️ Thank you Fuente alegre team for offering this unique opportunity to be part of this wonderful community and family.
